Hey guys going to try a method that I have never tried before. Slip floats for lakers. Here's my question; should I use split shot with a hook below and a minnow or do you find a jig head with a minnow work better. Hoping to catch something trying out this new tactic. Any info is good info! Thanks

You should pm Dbfish. He uses the method all the time but is in Elliot lake trying to win a tourney right now and I am not sure how much he's checking in. I would think a drop shot rig with a bad boy on bottom and a minnow a few feet up and then put the stop to where it touches bottom. The hardest part seems to be keeping the holes clear.

Answer to question. I prefer to use a single hook which gives the minnow more free range, no resistance!! No luck at tournament but so did 550 others. Lol
